At my wits end with this crop situation!

I also suspect a problem with her reproductive system. I wouldn't bathe her, it might cause more stress than necessary. I would try a calcium citrate +D3 tablet daily for a week and see if that helps pass an egg. The crop bra sounds like a good idea too.

Am I correct that you said she hasn't laid an egg since her crop problems started?

Hi! Thank you for the input, perhaps so. I feel like it'd be resolved if it was just a crop issue but I never thought of that. Okay, I do have tums which I've heard is good. Is that the same thing??

Actually I just remembered. The day I first noticed the sand in her crop thing she laid an egg that day but hasn't since.

Tums isn't quite the same. The calcium citrate+D3 is usually higher strength and seems to be the best.

Okay, that still could mean there is another egg stuck farther back.

Okay, awesome thanks for clearing that up. I'm concerned about making it to the store in time. The closest is half an hour away but their selection is very poor. I'll have to see if my Mom has any.....

If you can't get it anytime soon you can use the tums.

Okay, would you by chance know the dosage on that?? If not I can look it up so no worries.

I don't, sorry. Never used Tums before.
